Research Assistants Take Flight
In late September, my fellow research assistant, Tim, and I were given the opportunity to take a biplane ride with pilot Dave Trucksess of Atlas Aero. The experience was phenomenal!
As Amelia Earhart once said, “You haven’t seen a tree until you’ve seen its shadow from the sky” and boy does this ring true.
Tim and myself grew up in southern Maine, are avid beach goers, and have been visiting the Wells Reserve since we were young students. However up in the airplane it was like seeing this whole area for the first time. The views of the nearby beaches, dense wooded areas, and the estuaries were just beautiful.In an attempt to pass on just some of this beauty, here are some photographs from the adventure. I would highly recommend a trip with pilot Dave if ever given the chance!
